Sonnet II

If stars be the eyes of God, let them shine 

Within thy sorrow’ed breast, as a lamp

Fear and brokenness be no longer thine

Cast off thy cruel sadness so dank and damp

Prodigious daylight burning ev’r bright

Wasteth not thy might on thoughtless weeping

That thou no longer fear the shadow’d night

Thine heart in mine at each moment keeping

Luminous stars our bliss do witness bear

All loves devotion showing souls entwined

Such beauty, knowing true loves kiss so rare

Waste not this constellation’s fiery find

Harmony burning in our hearts and minds

Always, in life or loss, so sweetly binds.
